In this episode, I review some of the many characteristics of a residency application that matter in improving one's odds. But, instead of generalizing, you want to use these attributes to make sure you are applying them to the right place.

What increases your odds of matching? increased applications, interviews, research abstracts, and GPA.

What pharmacy school characteristics matter? Public, older schools, higher NAPLEX pass rates, and affiliations with academic medical centers.

But, there are clear exceptions, many of the best matching schools are private schools with no AMC affiliation. Some colleges with terrible NAPLEX pass rates earn residencies at a high rate. Knowing where you stand is key.

Ep 513 - 100 Percent Residency Match Rate Coming Soon Oct 26, 2022

Show notes

I am predicting many colleges of pharmacy will achieve a 100% residency match rate in four years as the pharmacy school enrollment decreases by about 500 students a year for the next three years including this one and then a cliff drop of 1800 in one year significantly impacting the number of residency applications. It's still tough to get certain residencies, but those just wanting a residency will find the process much easier.

Ep 510 Lesson 2 Residency Application Course - Match Rate Oct 12, 2022

Show notes

Match rate matters not only in getting a residency, but understanding the strength of a program. Applying to a residency in a state like Michigan with three strong matching schools is harder than applying in states with weaker rates. The key is to understand how your match rate, literally, matches up with the sites you are applying to.
